Sidney Goodman

Room 318
1971–1972

A painting depicting a woman sitting nude on a red chair placed on a raised platform in a room with muted colors. She is looking directly at the viewer with a contemplative expression. To her left, there's a small stool, and in the foreground, a black and white cat is lying on the wooden floor, bathed in a patch of sunlight. On the right, a table covered with a yellow cloth and a jacket thrown over it is visible, with a closed door and a window in the background. The room has a serene and still atmosphere.
